What is the key to a rich and powerful prayer life?
• Don’t make prayer a
• Don’t make prayer a
• Prayer is not
“Our”
1. I pray with
“Father”
2. I pray as
“In heaven“
3. I pray
The foundation for vibrant prayer:
QUESTIONS For personal reflection or group discussion
1. What has helped you most in your prayer life?
2. Read Matthew 6:5-13. Max Lucado wrote that “Oh Daddy” is a good way to begin prayer. If we truly approached God as a loved, tender Daddy, what kind of interaction would mark our conversation with him?
3. Throughout the next 24 hours, pray, “Thank you, Father,” as you look around you at the many blessings He gives. Go to your Father several times throughout the day in short prayer and just say, “Father, I love you. Thank you for your love for me.”
